I didn't notice this thread before. I vote for September 1 1939. If HItler hadn't invaded Poland then the Allies wouldn't have eventually kicked his ass (metaphoriacally of course. He kicked his own as physicaly). Hehehe... ------------------ Visit my webpage! http://cm4mac.tripod.com

You can make pretty much everything with the current building inventory. You want a government complex? Just put a few block houses and stuff together and there ya go. ------------------ Visit my webpage! http://cm4mac.tripod.com

The european war game looks pretty crapy! There's nothing really new in it. No troop morale or anything. All they did was let you have up to 8000 units. The fact that you can't rotate the camera is disapointing. After Combat Mission I always find myself trying to rotate the camera in CC and C&C. The game has promise but it looks to be another run of the mill game. And come on! No Mac version? ------------------ Visit my webpage! http://cm4mac.tripod.com

Actually the troops are running they just look like there walking. Been fixed long ago. Theres actually a whole gallery on CMHQ with just the new Running Animations in it. I don't think the speed has been changed. ------------------ Visit my webpage! http://cm4mac.tripod.com

I'm sorry. I apologize. I'm sorry I don't recall that. I've failed...bang...ouch. ------------------ Visit my webpage! http://cm4mac.tripod.com

N/P matt... I feel the same way. First of all you are NOT a member of the CMHQ. It's a website. Pictures are there. Pictures are at my site. Pictures are at Foobar's site. Matt is a beta tester. Fionn is a beta tester. Rune is a beta tester. Other people are beta testers. Matt is my hero. Fionn is my hero. Rune is my hero. So join the huddled masses and listen to whatever they say. "When three hundred years old you are look this good you will not!" Yes, they are Yoda like in demeanor (but not in stature (although I haven't seen pics of Fionn)). Go to CMHQ!!! NOW!! YOU STILL HERE??? Treat CMHQ as the oracle. It knows all and see's all. S&C should also be reveared as gods. Treat them with the utmost respect. Then there's us. The loyal followers. We do what they say when they say it. If they say "jump" we respond with "how high?". Pretty cool eh? The info S&C and the testers give us is more valuable then a bottle of scotch in a place with prohibition. ------------------ Visit my webpage! http://cm4mac.tripod.com

Oh come on! I know you wanna go to London. Just think. I'm sure Major Tom would come down from Guelph or whereeverthehell he lives. I'm sure there are lots of CM people in the area. But then again it's not far from Chicago is it? ------------------ Visit my webpage! http://cm4mac.tripod.com

Just a couple of points. YOu don't call for airstrikes so to speak. You're just notified that they're in the area and could come in (or something like that). Also there are no specific aircraft. These are abstratcted (and rightly so). Loadouts are based on Nationality somewhat. British Typhoon's tended to use rockets so there might be a slightly higher chance you'll have a plane with rockets. Hope this helps. I haven't seen any German aircraft. Are there any in the game? I know they didn't have much historically but it would add something. ------------------ Visit my webpage! http://cm4mac.tripod.com

I don't think were gonna see this before CM2 and maybe not ever then. Too many variables methinks. Ah well it's a nice thought. ------------------ Visit my webpage! http://cm4mac.tripod.com

That's it Fionn! You're gonna get it now!!! Just kidding of course. ------------------ Visit my webpage! http://cm4mac.tripod.com

Hey thats a really great site thanks

Makes sense though. If I were an artist I'd try to get published any where I could. The one I have isn't a bad book but they don't seem to be consistent with their info. Ah well it's pretty small so if I'm playing CM in the future I can easily look up a vehicle and find out how big of a threat it is. ------------------ Visit my webpage! http://cm4mac.tripod.com

The tactic with keeping the Tiger on the back hill usually works well for me. I once had 14 hits from Hellcats bounce off or break up. If you wanna try out something crazy (against the AI) try rushing a StuG or even the Tiger up through the town and place it to the left or right of where the Hellcats enter. You always kill loads of infantry and usually get one or two Hellcats if you use a StuG. Unfortunetly I haven't had a StuG survive yet but I've kept the Tiger alive when I did this but he didn't get as many kills as when I did it with the StuG. I was thinking about trying it out with a StuG and a Tiger or two StuGs. Also remember to move fast and buttoned through the town and over the bridge. If you start rushing on Turn 1 you can usually take out one of their 60mm mortars too. So basically it's a really cheap, gamey tactic that only works sometimes but usually when it works it works well. I'm sure all the people who like to do things historically accurate are dropping their jaws. ------------------ Visit my webpage! http://cm4mac.tripod.com

The following transaction will be slightly heavier, P2 receiving P1 orders, playback and position data. They say that coding for too long reduces your IQ, after which you start producing stuff that is unnecessary heavy - tripple swapping, 50% longer pbem mechs. Done for greater good afterall, hot seat and TCP/IP. I ditch the pbem alright. The game itself is damn fine though.

You're last post is completly useless. Nothing in it was worth saying. So next time just don't say it because no one cares anymore. And maybe that face wasn't supposed to be frowning. I think it's a lot more effective right side up. Sorry to have wasted your time. ------------------ Visit my webpage! http://cm4mac.tripod.com

Sorry to bring this up again but.. I think CCJ found something but I don't remember for sure.

The side shot is from a book called Armored Fighting Vehicles by Philip Trewhitt. ISBN 1-89410-281-9 It's a pretty good book. Man I'm becoming a grog. They spelt Jagdpanzer IV wrong on page 138. ------------------ Visit my webpage! http://cm4mac.tripod.com

That scanned pic is cool. I have the book that you got it from. Was this book used as a major reference for CM? ------------------ Visit my webpage! http://cm4mac.tripod.com
